Hey guys.

Picked up my new I30 1.4 comfort yesterday and so far am quite pleased with it. Ive had the rear windows professionally tinted and I got a dealer fitted rear spoiler.

Its a bit of a step down from my previous car, a Mazda RX8 231, but it'll be much cheaper on fuel. :)

Ive got plans for building a computer into the dash and various other bits and bobs, so Im sure Ill post my disasters on here as I go...

Nice to meet you all!

Shaun :)

Go thro' Hoylake several times a week to West Kirby so will look out for your motor.

So if you see a bloke flashing (lights) or waving in a black 57 plate it will be me as not many, if any, early 57 plate i30's on the Wirral.
